Countdowns

1373 days till Donnie is a lame duck president. Unless he gets impeached first (fingers crossed!)

645 days till the mid-term elections. Maybe we’ll see a shift away from the right in both houses of Congress.

One can only hope. Already tired of the ill considered, half-baked, knee jerk reaction “executive orders” that have been spewing out of the white house. I really, really fear for the environment.

In other news, the spousal unit and I had a fun Saturday night. Decided to do a few laps in the hot tub before dinner. Felt wonderful, all that nice hot water and the (very) cool winter air. Came in, changed into dry clothes and went back out to grill pork steaks for dinner.

Cindy went out for a butt, I was collecting tax forms on line. I heard a big “Thud” come from the back porch. By the sound, I knew it wasn’t good. got up, went through the kitchen to the back door and saw her sitting on the porch floor holding her head, blood dripping down onto her shirt. I pulled her hand away and found a LOVELY split on her forehead. Started about an inch above her left eye and went straight up into her hairline. She was asking if I could just put a band aid on it. Hah. I grabbed a handful of napkins, that lasted for about a minute. Loaded her up with another handful and took off to get my act together. Changed out of my flannel pants in to some real clothes, brought the steaks in off the grill (AND remembered to shut it down), turned off the oven with the acorn squash roasted to perfection and off we went to the ER. Amazingly enough, on a Saturday night we got in and out of the ER in 3.5 hours. Even wedged in a CT scan looking for internal bleeds (Xarelto, you know).

Bottom line? 11 stitches, sadly against the grain of the skin. Going to leave a killer scar, might rival the one on my arm from my biceps tendon repair. No concussion, no cracked skull. Looks like she slipped on a patch of ice and caught the handle of the sliding door with her forehead on the way down. Going to put a bigger rug in front of the door, that will cover more of the wood planks and offer better traction.

WOW! Glad it was “just” 11 stitches. Man that is bad enough. Glad that is all that happened to her. So how was that perfection that was squash 3.5 hrs later?

Let’s just hope that orange baffoon is gone before 1373 days!!! He makes me ill and he thinks these quick executive orders shows he means business and he is doing things. Yes, he making the world angry. The ass!

Donald the Orange is even pissing off Europe and a mess of Republicans. Wonder if he’s using a phone that’d on the State Dept server? He wanted to jail Clinton for a similar offense. Not to mention all his conflicts of interest. Prayng for impeachment, soon.
